    Hi,

    No matter what compressor I choose I always seem to see errors when I try to output. The errors say “could not find an acceptable pixel format” and “Can’t create OpenGL context” and result in just a black screen being exported.

    Does anyone have any idea why this might happen?

    Thanks

    in an update, i find when I untick Use OpenGL hardware acceleration the issues goes away but it takes obviously far too long to export (15 hours just isnt practical…)

    Have updated my graphics card driver (ATI RADEON HD 3400) but that doesnt seem to have fixed it…

    This has been bugging me for years. no matter how I tried. XP or win7. 32bit or 64bit. from the oldest catalyst to the latest. nothing… even with four different cpu. All I get are errors from my x1650,4670 and 4850.
